bcr Rearrangement without juxtaposition of c-abl in chronic myelocytic leukemia
نویسنده
چکیده
Southern blot analysis detected a bcr gene rearrangement within leukemic cells of a Philadelphia chromosome-negative chronic myelocytic leukemia (CML) patient that led to transcription of a novel 7.3 kb bcr RNA species. Participation of the c-abl oncogene in this genomic recombination could be ruled out by in situ hybridization studies and Northern blot analysis.

BCR-ABL fusion genes and laboratory findings in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in northeast Iran
Background: A specific chromosomal abnormality, the Philadelphia chromosome (BCR-ABL fusion), is present in all patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). The b2a2 and b3a2 fusion mRNAs encode p210 fusion protein p210 and e1a2 encode p190. The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of BCR-ABL fusion transcript variants in Northeast of Iranian CML patients and to compare the laborato...
متن کاملbcr rearrangement and translocation of the c-abl oncogene in Philadelphia positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
The Philadelphia (Ph1) chromosome, the cytogenetic hallmark of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), has also been detected in a significant number of acute lymphoblastic leukemias (ALL). Using in situ hybridization, we demonstrate that in accordance with observations in CML the Ph1 chromosome in ALL patients is the result of a consistent translocation of the c-abl oncogene to the Ph1 chromosome. Sou...
متن کاملPersistence of chronic myelocytic leukemia despite deletion of rearranged bcr/c-abl sequences in blast crisis
We report on a Ph+ chronic myelocytic leukemia (CML) case, cytogenetically characterized by the occurrence of a second Philadelphia (Ph) chromosome in lymphoid blast crisis of T cell lineage. In situ hybridization analyses showed a deletion of translocated c-abl sequences, present on the Ph during chronic state, from both Ph in acute state. Moreover, Southern blot analyses of blastic cells exhi...
متن کاملFrequency of BCR-ABL Fusion Transcripts in Iranian Azeri Turkish patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia
Background: The Philadelphia chromosome (Ph) characterized by t (9; 22) (q34; q11.2) is a reciprocal translocation giving rise to a chimeric BCR-ABL fusion gene. Incidence of Ph chromosome is over 98% in Patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) and around 20% in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The finding of this fusion gene is essential for diagnosis of CML by detection of various fusi...
متن کاملRearrangement of the breakpoint cluster region and expression of P210 BCR-ABL in a "masked" Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute myeloid leukemia.
The Philadelphia (Ph) translocation t(9;22)(q34;q11) occurs frequently in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) but is less common in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and rare in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In most cases of CML and some cases of Ph+ ALL the protooncogene ABL from 9q34 is translocated to the breakpoint cluster region (bcr) of the BCR gene at 22q11 to form a chimeric gene encoding a...
